The saturday sun had reported that Super Eagles' players vowed to put their fresh on the grill today's afternoon match between Nigeria and Guinea, and she will go down to the wires for the sole ticket from Group B in the qualifying race for next year's Africa Cup of Nations to be co-hosted by Gabon and Equatorial Guinea.
Guinea currently tops the group with 13 points. Nigeria is second with 10 points. While the Syli Stars need a draw to confirm their ticket to next year's football fiesta, the Super Eagles need just 1-0 victory to snatch the ticket from the Guineans courtesy of lesser goal deficit.
The Nigerian players have been talking tough ahead of today's decisive clash, vowing to pull the rug off the feet of the Guineans this afternoon inside the main bowl of the magnificent Abuja National Stadium.
“I did not travel all the way from England to Nigeria for a jamboree,” West Brom of England playmaker, Osaze Odemwingie, declared early in the week.
